Natalie Garza

As a Biochemistry major at the University of Texas at San Antonio, I have developed a strong foundation in molecular biology, organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry, with an emphasis on critical thinking and problem-solving in scientific contexts. My coursework has strengthened my ability to analyze complex biological systems, interpret experimental data, and apply quantitative reasoning to real-world medical and research questions. Through rigorous STEM training, I have learned discipline, time management, and resilience while balancing demanding coursework, work responsibilities, and long-term professional goals.

This academic experience has reinforced my interest in medicine and research and has prepared me for the intellectual rigor required in clinical and healthcare environments.
